    I hate distracted drivers. I got rear ended on the way home today. Was stopped on one of our interstates on the way home today when some idiot rear ended me and pushed me into the SUV in front of me.

    looks like its time to upgrade to some armor. use the insurance money to cover the rear end. not sure how your front is going to play out

    Got the perfect solution for ya!! Upgrade to Plate bumpers!

    SOS Concepts has some awesome armor for these trucks. I've got the Streamline from bumper on mine and looking to get the rear soon.

    Looks like you only damaged the front area that will be removed by the streamline bumper anyhow! saves you some $ there.

    Bumper, Winch, 315s, Sliders, OME HD lift, Custom rear swingout, roof rack, drawers, way too much to list.
    Hopefully they have insurance and everything gets taken care of. My wife and her family got rear-ended while stopped on I-10 near Tucson (accident ahead made all traffic stop) young kid didn't even touch his brakes and hit them at about 60mph. He said that he didnt know what happened, so probably texting.

    Sorry to see, but yeah as others have said, might be able to replace the front/rear with some plate bumpers now; always some silver lining!

    Maybe they where distracted by the placement of your stickers?

    Jk man, I hope the insurance takes care of you and you should upgrade to a better rear bumper and profit the extra money :)
